Best Answer

The 1 piece is a SOLID round rubber seal. The 2 piece is 2 half's that are the same and they fit together.

From a practical standpoint, the differences are great enough that most of the parts are not interchangeable. Whichever block you go with, you'll need to get the correct parts for it.
